Colleen's First Haircut

Colleen's curly hair has become unruly as of late so I decided to shape it up a little. It was such a beautiful day so I cut it outside in the stroller. The cracker was a perfect distraction.

"Where is Colleen?"

"There she is!"

Visits with Family

We had the pleasure of having the entire Kirkland Family stay in our home this past weekend. Joe and Abby were in town for a visit so everyone gathered at our house from Friday night to Sunday morning. Most of the time was spent playing games in the floor with the children, eating, drinking Russian Tea, and just catching up as a family. As Abby remarked a few times, it really did feel like Christmas!

Cousins


Last night was Chili at Papa Ron and Nonna's house. Jason and Colleen had so much fun seeing as they both ate more "treats" than chili!

Get behind a camera and tell Colleen to "say cheese" and she hams it up.

Jason's First Sleepover

Ty has spent the night before but he and Jason have never slept in the same bed. This time they wanted to be together and did great. What a terrific buddy.

We have been doing a lot of yard work recently and with that comes bonfires to burn trash. Nonna came over one evening and brought the ingredients for smores.

Daddy's helper

Jason is really using his imagination and enjoying some more alone playtime. He came to me this morning with this creation, to which I replied, "What a great tower." He very quickly corrected me by saying, "No, this is a Tortilla Chicken Nest." Ofcourse!
